The 2007 Volkswagen Jetta with the 2.5 L 5-cylinder engine requires 6.3 quarts of oil with a filter. The top choice for optimal performance in this car is the SAE 5W-40 MS Synthetic oil. When tightening the drain plug for the Jetta, it should be torqued to 22 ft/lbs. Synthetic oil is preferred over conventional oil as it is artificially made and has fewer impurities. Maintaining the right oil is crucial for keeping the engine clean and functional. It is essential to change the oil and filter every 10,000 miles or 12 months for the Jetta to ensure its longevity as oil does not last forever.

    A 2007 Jetta equipped with the 2.5 engine requires 6.3 quarts of 5w40 motor oil, not 5w30. The oil used must meet the specifications of VW 502.00 and 505.01. As of 2022, there are no 5w30 oils available in the market that meet these requirements, so it is crucial not to use 5w30 in the vehicle. Using too thin of an oil like 5w30 can lead to increased wear on bearings and camshafts due to its low film strength and insufficient additives.
